One-for-One Card Swap

One-for-One

It’s time for another One-for-One card swap! After I displayed the cards from my last three swaps, you told me you wished you had participated.  “I will definitely participate in the next swap,” you said.  Now’s your chance!

Summer’s almost here (it’s technically still spring for another week-and-a-half), and we’ve just welcomed the new annual catalog.  Let’s celebrate our new things by sharing (…and receiving) a summery card.  It’s simple.  Send a beautiful summer card, receive a beautfiul summer card in return.

Here’s how it works:

You mail the following to me:

  • a handmade card (a standard 5-1/2″ x 4-1/4″ card) designed by YOU. Please make every effort to use products from the current Stampin’ Up! catalog. 
  • a self-addressed, stamped envelope (just fold one in half and include it with your card).
  • a little information for me if you want to share: your name, your email address, your level of interest in stamping (are you a light hobbyist, a serious hobbyist or a Stampin’ Up! demonstrator?), and your website address (if you have one). I will share your name and city/state on my blog and with the person who receives your card. The other information WILL NOT be shared with anyone else. I just want to get to know you better.

Please don’t write on the inside of your card so that the recipient can use it (if they choose to).  I will gather the cards I receive and will mix them up and mail them out so that everyone who sent me a card will receive a card in return. As long as I receive a card from you by the deadline, then you will receive another card in return.  Oh, glorious day!

I know this is going to break your heart, but I will have to limit this to two cards per person (if you choose to make more than one).   It just makes it easier for me to sort through them and distribute them back out.  Thanks for understanding.  Also, please make sure you include a return envelope for each card you send.

Mail your card and return envelope to:

Brian King

1758 Colt Drive

Atlanta, GA 30341

Please mail them as soon as you can – but make sure they arrive by Friday, July 5. That’s when I will sort them and then mail them out. I will also include photos of the cards on my blog (giving proper credit to the creator, of course).

Who’s in? Email me if you have any questions. [email protected]

Thanks for stopping by my blog today!
